After Action Report

In a track meet, the Raptors handled the Bulls 117-104. Raptors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
